It is odd to to see you included
in that statement.😄

[Hannah]

Okay, so here's Allyson's and my question:

Which author was married in 1851 but was later abandoned with her infant daughter and divorced 6 years later?

[Emma | meadowroselibrary]

What a sad life!

[Hannah]

For real, right!?!

[Emma | meadowroselibrary]

I don't have a single guess. I'd say Louisa May Alcott, but then I'd sound like Dorry, 😋 and I don't *think* she had such a tragic life. 🤷

[Ruth]

Well, we know it isn't Louisa May Alcott
nor Margaret Fuller, neither of which had
ever married. 🤔💭hmmm.
It can't Catherine Sedgwick or Emily
Dickinson.

[Hannah]

Allyson, I think we're succeeding in stumping them!! Giving you a virtual high-five!

[Ruth]

Neither is it Sarah Jewett Orne or
Eleanor H. Porter.
Certainly not Willa Cather.
Who else is there?🤔💭

✋

[Allyson]

I'm quite enjoying this.😏

[Lily Rose]

Hannah and Allyson, you two are cruel.🤣

[Lily Rose]

I'm just going to put my guess in there and say Celia Thaxter.

[Allyson]

We'll do a Ruth and Emma and make you wait to find out until everyone has guess.😊

[Ruth]

Dorothy wrote: "Hannah and Allyson, you two are cruel.🤣"

Perhaps you ought to refresh your memory
with the previous pages. 😛

[Doreen]

Well I know the answer but I cheated so I'll just sit back and watch the guesses. That was a good one though Hannah.

[Joanna]

Dorothy wrote: "I'm just going to put my guess in there and say Celia Thaxter."

Big NOOOO!!!

[Joanna]

Ok give us a hint.😄 Is it a NE author or just American?

[Joanna]

Luck you, Doreen...at least you'll be able to sleep tonight! 🤣

Oh please it's just a question

[Joanna]

Doreen wrote: "Oh please it's just a question"

Lol, I know but it's the kind of thing that I'll wrack my brain over till it hurts!

[Hannah]

Dorothy wrote: "Hannah and Allyson, you two are cruel.🤣"

That's like the pot calling the kettle black, Dorry!

[Hannah]

Doreen wrote: "Well I know the answer but I cheated so I'll just sit back and watch the guesses. That was a good one though Hannah."

Actually, Allyson came up with the "fun fact". She did some great diggin'!

[Joanna]

Some credit should be given for knowing who it's not. 😋

[Ruth]

Meg wrote: "Some credit should be given for knowing who it's not. 😋"

Exactly.
(See messages 977& 979)

🤔💭Catharine E. Beecher? Julia Ward Howe?
I don't think it's Lydia Maria Child either.

Is this a New England or American authoress?
Since no one responded to Meg's question.

[Ruth]

Is anyone getting close?
😮-Hello🎙"Is this thing on?"

[Joanna]

Ruth wrote: "Is anyone getting close?

They are sitting back rubbing their hands together with glee. 😂

The pests!
I can hear them giggling!
I bet Doreen is sitting with a cup of coffee watching
us squirm.

[Hannah]

Brownie points for your deductive reasoning, I guess?

She's so helpful...😂
